A system at equilibrium contains \(\mathrm{I}_2\)(g) at a pressure of 0.21 atm and I(g) at a pressure of 0.23 atm. The system is then compressed to half its volume. Find the pressure of each gas when the system returns to equilibrium.
ANSWER:Step 1 of 5
In chemistry, equilibrium refers to a chemical reaction’s state where the forward and reverse reactions occur simultaneously, leading to no net change in the concentrations of reactants and products over time. A double arrow in chemical equations often represents this state, indicating that the reaction can proceed in both directions.
